It seems at the small scale i.e. personal experience rather vs a statistical analysis of a large data set, one just can't tell who is going to be a believer or non-believer. I have had many tradesmen working in my house over the last 2 years (even during the height of the hysteria) and they have mostly thought that it's over blown; I suppose their experience 'out and about' (as they that's what they need to do to earn a living) was a) they had not dropped dead, b) they were not tripping over piles of bodies. Conversely, others that I'd have thought would be skeptics have proven to be the biggest bed wetters.

Non-believer for them, believers for you - various clowns and malicious characters on Twitter and some in real life (I know personally of only one or two)

Believers - those who fear the consequences of not being.

Non-believers - neither of the above.
